Comfortable stay!
Lovely interaction with reception upon check-in and checkout. We did notice some plugs not working during our stay but luckily we always travel with a power strip.

Louisville my new love
The front desk staff were full of smiles and kindness. The breakfast chef was respectful and cheerful but serving all alone, he still kicked ass! The food was perfect and loved the decor too inside room and lobby! I loved location too
See you next time

Great beds & friendly people!
They have the most comfortable beds I’ve had at a hotel in a very long time! Which being there for a Dr’s appt makes all the difference! We were only a couple blocks away from my appt, so the location was very convenient as well. The lady at the front desk was really nice with a great smile! She was very helpful in answering any questions I had & gave great food suggestions. It was a great stay & I’ll be staying there for every follow up appt in the future!💜

Staff very friendly and helpful. I got in early and they were able to keep my bags stored in a secure area. Also recommended food in the area which was walking distance.

The guy at the desk was awesome. He answered all of my questions. The room was clean and comfortable. The only thing that frustrated me a bit was the fact that one day my room was not cleaned. I was there there 4 nights.

Good stay but small issues
Parking is 17/day and you may or may not get a space. If you don't, you have to park at a YMCA 2 blocks away and get your ticket validated. No pool.
Otherwise the room was nice, clean and the staff is great.
